Electric Sailboat / Yacht Project
April 20th, 2006
My friend Janne, owner of Electric Ocean has a fixation about sailing and making the future world a better place. He has recently started a blog about his electric powered sail boat / yacht project. Driving an Elcat electricity powered car and hacking with Piktronik battery chargers and Tacktick navigation instruments you know he is serious about his dream.
He is absolutely correct. If sailboats are white, elegant and beautifull. Why do they still have dirty and loud combustion engine under their decks for the no-wind days?

What a great Idea..
Thank you so much for publishing a great website..
I have a Finnish neighbour and mentor that has taught me so much about electronics and alternative fuels..
Someday my wife and I hope to sail from Lake Superior (Canada) to Scotland..
However that is a few years away yet..it will be wonderfull to see the technology in 2010 or so..
